Minnesota Vikings assistant strength and conditioning coach Marquis Johnson was spotted leading the bench press drills with the tight ends group at the NFL Scouting Combine on Thursday.
Johnson is spotting the weight, while also serving as the greatest hype man you’ll ever see at an NFL Combine event. As fatigue starts to set in and the prospect on the bench begins to struggle, the Vikings’ coach was cheering him on and challenging him to push past the obvious point of exhaustion.
“Keep going, keep going. Come on! There you go. There you go! Another one. I need another one! I got your back! I got your back,” Johnson yells in the video, via Minnesota sportscaster Paul Allen.
